Embodiment Construction

[0030] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0031] figure 1 It is a diagram showing a conceptual configuration of an image processing device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0032] Such as figure 1 As shown in , the image processing device is composed of a histogram calculation unit 1 , a grayscale transformation characteristic determination unit 2 , a grayscale transformation unit 4 and a fixed grayscale transformation characteristic storage unit 5 . When image data is input to the histogram calculation section 1 , a histogram of pixel values ​​of the input image data is calculated in the histogram calculation section 1 . Regarding the histogram, a histogram of only the brightness component of the image data (brightness histogram) may be calculated, or a histogram of each color component of the image data may be calculated.

[0033] After the histogram is calculated in the histogram calculation...

Abstract

Image processing device, image recording device and image processing method. An object of the present invention is to provide an image processing device, an image recording device, and an image processing method capable of performing gradation conversion processing optimal for a scene at the time of shooting regardless of shooting conditions. A histogram of pixel values ​​of the input image data is calculated in the histogram calculation unit (1), and the calculated histogram is input to the gradation transformation characteristic determination unit (2). In the gradation transformation characteristic determination unit (2), the histogram calculated in the histogram calculation unit (1) for photographic information synthesis and the fixed gradation stored in the fixed gradation transformation characteristic storage unit (5) are referred to. Transformation characteristics to determine the grayscale transformation characteristics. The gradation conversion of the image data is performed in a gradation conversion unit (4) based on the determined gradation conversion characteristics.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image processing device, an image recording device and an image processing method, and in particular to an image processing device, an image recording device and an image processing method for adaptively performing grayscale conversion processing on an image. Background technique [0002] The grayscale performance of an image is one of the important factors that determine the image quality. Usually, the signal output from the imaging element is approximately proportional to the light intensity incident on the imaging element. Here, the output signal from the imaging element is grayed out in accordance with the final image observation environment (for example, image observation on a monitor or image output from a printer, etc.) in subsequent image processing. degree conversion processing. For example, in the case of a general digital camera, the sRGB color space is adopted as the standard color space of the image fi...
